Session Persistence
In some cases, it’s essential to maintain session persistence, especially for applications that store session data locally on a specific server. Load balancers can be configured to ensure that requests from a particular client are consistently directed to the same backend server, preserving session state.
How does a Load Balancer Works?
A load balancer is a crucial component in system design, ensuring that incoming network traffic is efficiently distributed across multiple servers or resources. The primary goal is to optimize resource utilization, enhance system performance, and ensure high availability and fault tolerance. The fundamental mechanism of a load balancer involves intelligently routing incoming requests to a pool of backend servers, preventing any single server from becoming overwhelmed with traffic.
Here’s a breakdown of how a load balancer works:
